The hotel not only took care of the crowd but worked in ways that could significantly reduce the chances of having any casualties.
They made sure that there was nothing that could've offended the Vampires. When one didn't know what kind of Vampire their guest was, it was always good to be careful and assu the worst, and that's what the hotel staff did.
Atlas stood on his balcony for the next one hour, just gazing at the moon in the sky. It was late at night, and with ti, more and more people kept entering their houses and going to sleep. Soon, the streets were completely empty. Only a couple of people could be seen occasionally.
"Hmm?" As he was looking outside, he felt as if soone was looking at him. It was a bizarre feeling, but he couldn't find anyone.
His gaze road over his surroundings, not finding anyone who was looking in his direction.
At the sa ti as Atlas looked to his left, a figure was hiding in one of the alleys, with their back resting against the wall.
The person hid just at the right ti as if being able to predict exactly when Atlas was going to look in their direction.
The hooded figure stood in complete silence in the dark alley for a few minutes before coming out again, glancing at the hotel again.
Atlas wasn't standing on the balcony at the mont. The roads were empty, and it appeared as if Atlas had also entered his room.
"Looking for soone?"
As the hooded figure assud that Atlas had already entered his room, an amused voice ca from the top.
The hooded figure frowned in response. Atlas was sitting on the roof of the building, his legs hanging in the air as if he was just enjoying the sight and the wind.
As soon as the person realized that Atlas was here, the person started running, not even looking up.
Unfortunately, their speed happened to be quite minuscule before Atlas who appeared before them again, blocking the person's paths.
He grabbed the person by the neck, raising their body in the air. At the sa ti, he took off their hood, revealing their faces.
"May I ask why you were spying on ?"
Seeing the person's face, Atlas realized that it was a woman. It was soone he had never seen because. She was neither a Vampire nor a Werewolf.
"Are you a Witch?" he asked.
The woman shook her head as she continued struggling to free herself.
"You know you can't free yourself. Your struggle would only make tighten my grip. So tell . Who are you?" Atlas repeated the question again, hearing no response the first ti.
"Castiel... I am here to help..." The woman answered. Her beautiful blue eyes glanced into Castiel's deep green eyes.
Even though the girl had been spying on him, her eyes appeared to be quite pure. Her long blue hair complinted her eyes quite well.
"Help ?" Atlas frowned. "Who are you?"
The woman, who looked to be in her early twenties, made a bizarre claim that she was here to help, which surprised even Atlas.
What did she an she was here to help him? He didn't need any help. For the first ti, everything was on track for him. Moreover, after being fooled by Yovana, he didn't feel at ease to trust another stranger like that.
"If you're here to help, why didn't you co to directly? Why were you spying on like an enemy?"
"I was making sure that it was you. Your aura is sowhat different from what I rember. It's the sa, yet different and weaker. That's why I was suspicious and was making sure before approaching you."
"And you don't recognize . That makes even more sure that I was right. In the last few centuries, sothing happened to you... Sothing that weakened you and made you forget about !" The woman declared.
"If you rembered, you would never treat like this..."
"Young lady, you're not the first one who tried to fool . I've already fallen for a lie. I won't fall for another!" Atlas frowned. "Tell who you are? What help you talked about?!"
"I don't need to fool soone who's about to be dead. I'm just here to make sure that it doesn't happen!" the woman declared. "They know about your return!"
"I'm about to be dead?" Atlas grimaced. He already knew he was about to be dead after real Castiel took over this body, but sothing gave him the impression that she wasn't talking about his death specifically. She was talking about Castiel's death.
However, shouldn't that be impossible? Castiel was immortal. There was no way for him to die. What did she an by that?
"You don't rember them either, do you?" the woman frowned.
"Is Lilith still with you? She must rember! She will rember . Take to her. I'm sure that in your current condition, you'll have a hard ti believing , but if it cos from Lilith, you'll believe her right away. Unless you forgot about her as well?"
"Fine. I'll take you to Lilith. But if you try running, next ti, I won't hold back." Atlas freed the woman, allowing her feet to touch the ground.
"You take the lead. You know our hotel, I'm sure."
The won nodded and started walking in the lead. Atlas walked behind her to make sure she couldn't escape. This ti, he was more careful.
Despite his firm suspicions, he still had a feeling that the girl was maybe telling the truth. There was no way she would ask him to take her to Lilith if she was lying since Lilith could've proven her lies instantly.
Especially since her story was more precise. It wasn't like Yovana's story that couldn't be verified.
If she was right, that also raised so heavy questions. Who knew about Castiel? What death was this woman talking about? Was this related to the reason because of which Atlas went into his slumber so abruptly? Or was this related to the ti that Atlan talked about?
Sothing really big was going on, and he had a bad feeling about it. He had a task of his own and his own Challenges. If Castiel's troubles also mounted over his head, he wasn't sure how he was going to handle it.
"What is your na?" He asked the woman just as they were about to enter the hotel.
The woman glanced back at him. There was a strange kind of sadness in her eyes as if she was quite hurt that Castiel couldn't rember her.
